What do I have to do?
The AM2S Assessment is broken down into the sections below. During some of the practical sections, you’ll be watched by the assessor. This can seem intimidating so try to practice beforehand with a colleague watching you to get used to it.
We’ve shown the length of time allocated to complete each section but you’ll be given additional time to read the instructions and prepare before starting the test.
This is just an overview, so if you are close to taking your AM2S Assessment and want more detail, choose a heading below to explore a step by step guide to each section.
